Peer reviw policy
- Submitted papers will be evaluated by the EIC and managing editors first.
- The papers may be rejected initially due to serious scientific and research flaws, poorly written language, being out of scope, having high similarity, poor contribution, and insufficient originality.
- Once papers are approved in the initial evaluation stage, they will pass through a double-blind peer-review process conducted in collaboration with editorial board members (handling editor) and independent reviewers.
- At least two reviewers will review the manuscript. The reviewers will check whether the manuscript is original, technically and methodologically sound, well-presented, and the results are clear. The first decision will be provided within 2-4 weeks after submission.
- Up to 10 days will be given to the authors to meet the comments and resubmit the revised version. Once the authors have revised and resubmitted the manuscript, the handling editor and reviewers will be notified to double-check the track changes and the improvements. The final decision (accept, reject, or request for further revision) will be sent to the authors.
SJCE Transactions encourages the authors to submit their manuscripts using our Journal Managing system. Reviewers can also use the reviewer’s panel.
